The magnitude of behavioural responses to artificial light at night depends on the ecological context in a coastal marine ecosystem engineer
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is one of the most extensive human geographic disturbances to wildlife. ALAN can have ecological and evolutionary effects on individual organisms, which in turn can affect populations, ...
Shelf and estuarine transport mechanisms affecting the supply of competent larvae in a suite of brachyuran crabs with different life histories
(INTER-RESEARCH, 2010)
Supply of competent larvae to the benthic habitat is a major determinant of population dynamics in coastal and estuarine invertebrates with an indirect life cycle. Larval delivery may depend not only on physical transport ...
An environmental magnetism approach to assess impacts of land-derived sediment disturbances on coral reef ecosystems (Cartagena, Colombia)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-06)
We used environmental magnetism methods to study recently deposited marine sediments from the estuarine ecosystems on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. Cartagena region has undergone an increasing sediment load during the ...
Winds vs. tides: Factors ruling the recruitment of larval and juvenile fishes into a micro-tidal and shallow choked lagoon (Argentina)
(Springer, 2015-03)
Choked lagoons (like Mar Chiquita, Argentina) are influenced by local winds because the inlet channel acts as a dynamic filter which reduce tidal fluctuations. Previous studies showed that the effects of onshore winds ...
Microscale Toxicity Identification Evaluation (TIE) for interstitial water of estuarine sediments affected by multiple sources of pollution
(2022-02-01)
Estuaries in the world are affected by different contamination sources related to urbanisation and port/industrial activities. Identifying the substances responsible for the environmental toxicity in estuaries is challenging ...
